Were planning to make it even better next year and are hoping that Kanab and Valley schools will be able to participate with us then. Mr. Jolin Cram and students are putting in lots of hard work and hours to get their projects and skills ready for the Indust rial Arts Vocational Day sponsored by tire Southern Utah State College in Cedar City on May 10th. Parents who have attended this vocational day in past years have considered it a very worthwhile and educational experience and urge more parents of our students as well as other prices interested citizens in our area to attend and share this experience with our students. Mr. Kirk Heaton, member of the Vocational Education Committee, attended a w orkshop in Phoenix on Monday of this week. This workshop was to formulate plans for guidelines in the work experience program for the high schools throughout Ariz ona. Mr. Heaton was the only employer-businessm- an Coconino Coun representing ty attending the workshop. The State Vocational were excited about the new ideas which Mr. Heaton brought to the workMr. and Mrs. Jim shop. Cox also attended the workshop and Mr. Cox stated that they were very pleased with Mr. Heatons ideas and input which he presented at the workshop. for Now and Then PARCEL and a E 158-acr- parcel of e land near Glendale, Utah, will sell in 40 acre tracts or total acreage, terms.

Should our present system of regulated monopoly be perreplaced by competition, Utahs long distance rates would increase while those in more densely populated areas would decrease. It is interesting to note that even the staunchest advocates of competition do not contend that it will reduce the cost of telephone service. W hile they don't say so, the exact opposite may be true. Because of the loss of revenue from long distance, basic service could conceivably be priced beyond the means of many of our citizens, particularly those on fixed incomes manently ior college based local students are among more than 500 incoming Utah freshmen who will receive scholarships at the University of Utah duracademic ing the 1977-7- 8 year.

Hill, Utah Public Relations Manager has several tips for getting the most out of Mother's Day call. Dial the call yourself if Dialing direct possible. saves time and money because an operator's assistance isn't required. In most cases, dialing direct is also the fastest way to complete a call. Timing will help. Calls placed between noon and 5 p.m. will avoid the busier times of the day. Calling peaks are also on the hour and half hour, so calls placed at other times will also go through faster. Planning helps as callers are able to cover more subjects in less time by jotting down things they want to talk about. Interesting family news tidbits are less likely to be forgotten. If you arent sure of the number or if Mom has a new one, get it from the long distance directory assistance operator before Mothers Day. If Mom lives outside the U.S., its especially important to have her number ahead of time. I)UP Camp pound mi Jumbo 2 Size for 79 Paper Towels X I Keeblers French Vanilla and Pitter Patter Cookies J.

Established 1951 Box good example of how this benefits our citizens is long distance rates. Toll charges are now based on distances, not the specific cost of providing long distance service. Tliis means that the cost of calling between two rural points is the same as a call between two metropolitan locations, assuming the distance is the same, even though the economy of scale dictates it costs more to provide scholarships Please call for our brochure 644-278- 9 averaging.

At the present time, our citizens enjoy the finest telephone service at the most reasonable cost of any nation on earth. Common sense tells us that extreme caution should be taken before tampering with the policies responsible for this system. The Utah State Legislature agrees with this position. Before it adjourned last month, it passed a joint resolution opposing competition in the telecommunications industry unless the benefits are clear. Another fact seems evident. Utahns have the most to lose if this trend toward competition is not reversed. As a rural state, we benefit tremendously from the telephone company's policy of price such as senior citizens. This must be avoided at all costs. The value of our national switched network is directly related to the number of people who can be reached on it. To decrease the number, for whatever reason, is to decrease the value of the network. To be sure there are times when our telephone services have problems that inconvenience us, and most often these are the times we remember the longest, but when seriously reflecting the service received for the cost involved, most Utahns will have to admit telephone service has been good, and that at a bargain price. In fact, telephone expenses are about the only costs that have gone down over the years. For comparison, several years ago, a call from Utah to New York was $10 to $20 and the cost of a first class letter was three cents. Today you can call from Utah to New York for one or two dollars, where a first class letter costs 13 cents. Many other costs would compare similarly. We join with our Legislature in urgingCongressto come to a quick definition of what our national telecommunications policy should be. We feel specifically that the number one goal of such a policy should continue to be widely available, low cost, high quality telephone service to all people in the United States. We also feel that telephone rates should continue to favor the home user. Intercity services proposed by others must not lead to higher priced telephone service, nor impair quality of service, nor wastefully duplicate existing facilities and services. Finally, we strongly urge that Congress, as our elected representatives, not the FCC, be the ones to determine national telecommunications policy. GROUND IS SOUND AN Sunday, Two IvIIS student tips for calling Mom Many mothers will be receiving a special reward on Congress Is presently In the early stages of a much needed comprehensive review of our national telecommunications policy. This review has been made necessary by the introduction of several regulations (which have the force of law) into the telephone industry within the past decade by the Federal Commissions Communication (FCC). These regulations have allowed an increasing amount of competition in an industry which has historically operated as a regulated monopoly. The industry, ATAT and 1600 independent telephone companies around the nation, vigorously resisted these regulations stating that they will inevitably lead to higher A'pr ci '7, i VEVBER OF THE cUrti iu f - IN 19 Ha v UTAH NEWS THE SOUTHERN 16 OZ. 73C :j i Bar S pound Sliced Bacon Swifts All Meat $1.29 pound 89l doz- - 75c I 14 oz Fish and Chips 95c pound Franks $1.19 Chicken of the Sea Chunk I Fresh Eggs Groton's Batter Fried Sliced Balogna Hormel Smoked Wrangler Large A A Tuna, size Western Family 22 oz. 55 Cello Carrots 2 for 29c Sweet Pickles and .!
